Matteo, I don't want to maintain ardour, but would you accept a patch from
me?

For years I've been seeing error messages from ardour that advise me to
edit PAM-related files that just don't exist on Slackware. If I patch
all these error/warning messages so they make sense for us (tell the
user to edit a file that actually exists, or whatever's required),
would you add that to the build?

Also, at one time, for ardour 3, I had a patch that allowed it to run
with elevated capabilities (using filesystem cap bits), the way JACK
applications are supposed to, without having to wrap it in set_rlimits.

I have some ideas for audio/jack-audio-connection-kit also. Are you
dead-set on taking this one, or can I have it? (If you look in the repo,
you'll see I maintain a lot of audio stuff that depends on it...)
